Description
The National Instruments PCI-6143 Multifunction I/O Device, with part number 778913-01, boasts a suite of features that make it an excellent choice for various demanding applications. It is equipped with 8, 16-bit analog inputs and 8 digital I/O channels (DIO), providing a versatile range of data acquisition capabilities. The device can handle two 24-bit counters and offers a maximum sampling rate of 250 kS/s per channel, ensuring high-speed data capture.
The PCI-6143 has an input voltage range of ±5 V, and its counter/timer I/O consists of 2 lines with a resolution of 24 bits and a frequency of up to 20 MHz. Its 68-pin VHDCI connector allows for secure and reliable connections to other components or devices. The unit is operated using the NI-DAQmx driver software, which is known for its ease of use and robust functionality.
With an analog input FIFO buffer size of 2,046 samples, the PCI-6143 ensures smooth data transfer and storage. It supports DC input coupling and its digital I/O channels are compatible with both TTL and CMOS logic levels. The power requirements of the device are modest, needing only 40 mA at 5 VDC, 140 mA at 3.3 VDC, 150 mA at 12 VDC, and 80 mA at -12 VDC.
In terms of design, the PCI-6143 is compact with physical dimensions of 6.10 x 4 inches, making it an ideal fit for standard PCI slots in most desktop computers. This multifunction I/O device is a reliable and efficient solution for professionals who require high-quality data acquisition and control.
